IN nearly all the States the cour

IN nearly all the States the courts
have held that it is legal to dun a man
by means of a postal card. But it is
unjust, all the same, to the debtor; not
that the sentimental injury to his feel
ings is of any consequence, but in Civ
ing the postmaster and his friends an
opportunity to read the dun, the
debtor chances for obtaining further
favOrs of monetary nature are ap-
preciably curtailed. The judges should
have thought of this.-Boston Budget.

THERE are SAG, 43S holders of railway
stocks in Great Britain, of whom 49,
O5S are in England, 63,7O7 in Scotland
and 50, 27S in Ireland. AS the popula-
ton in 1886 was $780,, 900, it follows
that one in every 81 persons is holder
of these stocks. The value of the stocks
held is 1881, 354,31O, and the average
holding is Fl, 521, or say 1900.

Adversely and Advertising
There was young man in this ere town,
Who was not wonderous wise;
he opened up some goods for sale,
But did not advertise.
Adversely did seize this man,
Misfortune filed his cup:
He opened once store, quite fine,
The sheriff shut it up.

TIE Boston Post quoting an article

THE Boston Post quoting an article from the CHAMPION regarding the in- efficient mail service in this locality, says:
 Complains are made along the lire of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad that the present mail service is little better than a burlesqus. The old po- ny express was slower, but it was more sure. The officials of the company here must know that nothing ilnpedes the traffic of road more than made quate mail facilities, and they should make immediate appeal to Postmaster General, Villas, 10 give the patrons better accommodations at once. The company's land commissioner at Washington, General Williamson, could very quickly obtain from the Postotfice Department the action re- quired."

THE false economy which induces the administration to claim that we cannot afford to expend more of our national income on pensions, will not hold water. It is true we are paying over SIS, ,ooo, ,ooo year for pensions but we can afford to be generous with our soldiers. The whole taxation of the United States for last year. state and national, amounted 10 only 90 a year per capita. There is no other great power in the world whose taxa ton is as low as this. Italy's is SIo.- 4a, Hollands 10, 90, Belgium's SII.oo, Great Britain's SIT. 80, Germany's SI7 and Frances 1900. Thus it will be seen that as the burden of taxation in this country is less than one third that of France, the cry that the nation will become impoverished by taking care of its disabled veterans is absurd as we'll as false:

a Mail Carriers Disappearance.

Edward Sheehan, the mail carrier of Sol
ders' Home, is a married man. His wife
Is now looking for him. From all that can
be learned Sheehan left his house at the
Home about half-past eight O'Clock In the
evening OF the 10th. lie told his wife he'd
return In little while. She is still walt
ing. The cause for his disappearance is
said to be this: Sheehan became enamored
OF young girl, 10 years old, that was
living at his house and grossly insulted
her, and to protect herself she said that
she would report his conduct to General
Hunt, governor Of the Home. lie pleaded
with her to spare him the threatened dis
grace, hut she was obdurate aud rather
than suffer the ignominy of his base conduct
fed the Home and has not been seen since.
His wife, thinking foul play had befallen
her husband, reported his disappearance to
Lieutenant Gessford. At the time Of his
going away he had his wife's watch In his
possession.
